    How to get rid of the install pages?

    Hi, I was going to play some with the latest nightly Juno (cant wait to try Razor engine with Umbraco). But I could not get cross the very nice looking install screens. Even though I stepped through all steps the installation stills keeps starting fresh whenever I go to the site URL.

    Should be a setting somewhere I guess, but where?


    Regards

    Jonas

    It is normally umbracoConfigurationStatus in web.config. try set it to 4.6 as a guess.

    Hi Jonas,

    Check that your settings have been correctly applied to the web.config. umbracoConfigurationStatus should be equal to "4.6.0.Alpha" - if umbracoConfigurationStatus is null or wrong, then that's why you get redirected to the installer screens.

    HTH,

    Bingo! Many thanks :-)

    The problem could relate to installing the business starter pack, however I tried finishing without any starter pack also.

    Ysod-errormessage when trying the starter pack:

    Exception information:

    It sounds like you've got some permission problems - that normally comes up when you can't add items to the installedPackages.config file.

    Double-check you've got full write perms. Also check whether ~/App_Data/packages/installed/installedPackages.config has any data in it. (I think that's the right path to it IIRC). Sometimes you need to just add a single line to it cause it throws an error if the file is empty, cause it's trying to load an XmlDocument and add nodes to it.

    HTH,

    Benjamin

    It was permission problems at first, the app pool was running with out folder permission now it has permission. Now I can install regular packages and the version setting was made automatically also. But starter kits wont install unfortunately. Now I get :

    Exception message: The process cannot access the file '\App_Data\packages\installed\installedPackages.config' because it is being used by another process.

    Which sound really strange. (I did close it after looking at it in Notepad (it wasnt empty)).

    Well - I guess I need to focus on this, restarting the appool got me a step further. I get back when I have more time to focus, ppl here say other things are more important today...
